Neurodivergence and McDonald's

Genuinely just curious what others think about this!

So I'm pretty sure I'm neurodivergent in some way. I don't know whether I'm on the autistic spectrum or it's a form of ADHD but I've always had some funny little habits/ways that seemed different from a lot of other people. Anyway! McDonald's has always been a safe/comfort food for me - its the same everytime, same taste, same texture (not always the same temperature 😂) but its a go to for me to keep my weird little brain happy. Please don't come at me with how unhealthy it is I literally couldn't care less.

So I recently have completely gone off it. I had no idea why until I looked it up yesterday and found out they have changed the way the burgers are cooked! A tighter sear for more juicy burgers, onions added while cooking and more of a brioche type bun than before. I now can't even stand the sight of a photo of the burgers I used to love without feeling genuinely physically sick. Has anyone else experienced this or is it just me?

Its not the most interesting of subjects but no one I know has noticed except me so I wanted to ask a wider range of people 😂

There was actually a post on this recently- the onions in the burgers, a few people said they’re not as nice- I’m dying to go again to try tbh- very curious!!!

I actually think they're nicer, but get that the change would throw you.
